Sam in the playground by his apartment building. (Somewhere I have a photograph
of Adam in just about exactly the same pose as in the right-hand picture
taken at just about the same age.) |

We went to a Two Boots pizza shop where Sam had a special pizza. They usually make pizza for
kids with a smiley face (or some kind of funny face) on it but because
Sam was wearing a SpiderMan shirt they drew a spider web design on his
pizza. (Their pizza is pretty good; so are their Po'Boy sandwiches -- what
we call grinders in Rhode Island and you might call subs or heroes). |

On summer weekends there are farmer's market tables set up in their neighborhood (yes, right in the middle of Manhattan) -- Sam is watching a display of a hive of live bees at a table where a beekeeper is selling jars of honey. |

Sam getting a ride on Adam's shoulders. (You can see the beekeeper's tent
and table behind Adam & Leah.)
Yes, although Leah doesn't really look it (unless she turns sideways),
"Baby Brother" is due around August 2nd. |

Adam and Sam are on their way to Madison Square Garden to see a New York Liberty WNBA basketball game while Nancy and I are on our way to Grand Central Station to catch a train out of the city... we're taking taking the A Train out of Delancey Street (yes, I know, the A Train doesn't go through there but apparently for some reason on Sunday afternoons it does cover part of the F Train route).
Sam is noticeably taller than he was just a few months ago -- but, after
all, he is just a week and a half away from his 4th birthday. |
